These boys, both men and women, were all ragged, their eyes were blank, their faces were yellow and thin, but their bellies were unusually large, as if they had been pregnant for four or five months.

"Ke, do you know who these are?" She motioned to sweep into the cage.

"Back to the masters, they are all slaves, used to raise "demon fetus". Ke said softly, but with anger in his tone.

"The Demon Fetus? Why? Bei Qingyan asked.

"The demon fetus lives by absorbing the essence blood and aura in the woman's body, and when he grows to a certain extent, he will break out of his body and become a terrifying bloodthirsty monster, eating the mother's body, which is extremely cruel. In fact, national law has long prohibited such acts. Ah Ke replied hatefully, and at the same time whispered: "But my subordinates heard that you can use cinnabar to strangle it in your stomach." ”

"And how did the demon fetus come to be?" Bei Qingyan's eyebrows have been locked, and the cold light of his eyes has appeared.

"The serum of various poisons is extracted first, and the alchemist needs to refine it, and finally an embryo is formed, and the embryo is implanted into the slave's body for two months to form a demon fetus." Ake explained carefully.

"Yes." Bei Qingyan responded and walked towards a small shop.

"Huh! Master, aren't you going to the Shadow Hall? That's where the spirit yuan is auctioned! Ake followed in her footsteps.

Bei Qingyan raised his hand, and replied without looking back: "Go buy cinnabar first and then go to the Shadow Hall." ”

"Good! The subordinate went to the latrine first. Ah Ke ran away in a hurry, clutching his stomach.

After half a pillar of incense, they arrived at the door of the "Shadow Hall".

The "Shadow Hall" is only opened once every two years, and hundreds of people are waiting for each opening. The boss calls himself "Kun Ye", and he is also the boss behind the entire black market, but no one has ever seen his true face.

This time, although he auctioned the spirit yuan, he changed the rules, not to whoever has more Xuan Ling coins, but to see whose soul is connected with the spirit yuan! If it is the one who communicates, the spirit element will shine. If it can't be connected, it will cut off one of its mirror spirit veins, or it will kill you.

But even so, there are still many dignitaries and powerful people who come here today, and most of them wear black cloaks in order not to reveal their identities. The lights in the main hall were also dim.

"I heard that today's Lingyuan is the cold dragon of the Red Sun Sect! He was assassinated not long ago, and his death was extremely tragic......"

"So it's the Cold Dragon? No way! I heard that he had reached the consummation level of the Sect Spirit Huang Master, how could he be assassinated! The person who killed him must be the boss of the Shadow Hall, right? ”

"Shut up! Since you're here, don't talk about it! Beware of your life! ”

Bei Qingyan listened to the conversation of these guests casually, gently shaking the jade bone fan with his left hand, and drinking tea with his right hand, but he was leisurely.

"Huh? Where's my Soul Coin ticket? Not far from her, a young man stood up in a panic, shook his sleeves and shook his robe.

"Brother Huangfu, will it be stolen? Maybe some people here don't want Lingyuan at all, but want to take away people's money. The man next to the boy got up and helped him find it.

Bei Qingyan looked up, and his gaze was locked on a brocade bag on the man's waist. Close your eyes and smell it, a faint herbal fragrance. From her previous life, the herb suppressed asthma attacks.

She knows the family history of several important officials in the Holy Capital City well. This person should be the eldest son of the Rong family, Rong Yang, who has had asthma since he was a child. His father Rong De is the current secretary of the Criminal Department, and he was also involved in the prince's case back then.

The Rong family and the Weng family are the two traitorous families.

It's a pity that after this can't be accommodated, he and Weng Jin are in the same stream on weekdays, committing adultery and plundering. Not long ago, in order to rob someone else's bride, he brutally killed thirteen members of the groom's family.

But he is a son of an official family under the wing of Concubine Weng, who dares to care?
